4S usage % drops quickly even with all apps closed. What is normal?

4S IPhone. Usage % drops quickly even with all apps closed. What is normal?

It depends on your carrier and signal strength, usage patterns, wifi connectivity, apps used every day.
Low signal on CDMA networks will drain the battery within 5 hours.
Full signal on CDMA + LTE will allow up to ~17 hours of runtime
Who is your carrier? (and signal strength)
What is your usage pattern?
When do you notice the battery dropping?

  • Spinning Beach Ball of Death.  Even with all programs closed, I'm still using 5 GB of RAM, according to Activity Monitor.  Help!

    Ever since installation of OSX Lion, I've been having freeze-up problems on my early 2011 MacBook Pro.  Increased the RAM from 4GB to 8GB.  Amazingly, when I have Mail and Chrome open, almost all of the RAM is consumed.  Even with all programs closed, I only have about 3 GB of free space.  Any ideas as to what the problem is?

    Mail under Lion (your profile says 10.5) is always busy and doesn't like large email database I hear.
    Chrome and Safari don't clear their history and cache, lack quota on how many days and disk use, so clear those out. This is where I do use CCleaner on Mac as well as Wndows.
    I keep reading from 10.6 on that even closing (quit) does not release memory and threads galour that there are memory leaks that you have to repair permissions, even restart, and poor memory management for many people's systems (often laptops).
    Free RAM is wasted RAM though. Even 3GB seems excessive. This is not OS 9 or 1999.
    but I found that 4-core 4GB RAM was fine except for handling large photo libraries.

    My iphone 5s (7.1) has permanently the search icon, as if searching network. This affects the speed of email and consumes a lot of battery. This happens even with all applications closed. I have restored the iPhone but the problem persists. Does anyone  have an idea of the solution?
    Thanks!!

    Try to reboot the iPhone, if that doesn't help make a backup via iTunes, and restore the iPhone via iTunes.
    Otherwise disable background refresh, and kill all apps

  • Internet connectivity circle keeps running with all apps closed in IOS 7.1

    Please help. Internet connectivity circle keeps running with all apps closed in IOS 7.1.
    This only started to happen after the iOS 7.1 update !
    Happened twice. Goes away after restarting the phone.

    I can confirm all bugs detailed by 'Taxes', above, and would add that Calendar suffers from similar 'swipe' issues to Safari!
    Doesn't anyone sit down and 'play' before release to check if these bugs have been exterminated?

  • Massive download with all apps closed!

    Hello,
    My ISP called me last week asking questions about massive download (86 Gigs in 16 days).
    To make the story short, I had to flash my router with Gargoyle firmware to discover that my iPad is sucking up all the bandwith. That's where the story is becoming weird. No apps is running, iCloud is off and no notification is activated. Even after a reboot it restart downloading. I don't know what the iPad is downloading but thank's to Gargoyle firmware, I know from where it's downloading:
    23.66.230.34     AKAMAI
    23.15.8.217       AKAMAI
    17.149.36.148   APPLE INC
    Unfortunatly, I'm not good enough to follow the IP's any further...
    Anybody have an idea of what is going on? I would like put my iPad back online but without the 3k ISP's bill. 
    Thanks

    Solved.
    I blocked the iPad with my router's firewall, preventing it to connect to internet but letting it connected to the router. Gotcha! A beautifull popup showed :''a problem with movies download..., stop, retry''. If you have any download with the app ''Movies'', even with it closed, it will continue the download....
    I will keep an eye on iPad log anyway because ''Movies'' cant explain the 86 gigs of download by itself...
    Thanks!

  • HELP...Distiller works with all apps including office2007 with the exeption of publisher 2007

    I have adobe 4.0
    It worked with all apps before the office upgrade.
    Now it works with everything except publisher 2007.
    I don't get any error. The entire print box is grayed out.

    Not sure. How are you trying to print? You may have to remind us what some of the options are. I have 4 versions of Acrobat installed on different machines, but not back to AA4. I might actually have access to that on another machine if needed, but don't have Office2007 on that machine. The combination is a bit strange and we might have to guess.
    When you say it works, I am assuming you have the Acrobat Distiller printer (or what ever the printer was) listed and you print to that. If not, please explain exactly what you are doing. There are too many options, particularly back when a lot of folks use PDF Writer rather than the Acrobat Distiller printer that is preferred.

    Hi Suzy Q,
    I can send and receive calls.
    I get "messaging stopped" when doing a lot of texts.
    Texts come up "ghosted" meaning they have the text on the bottom and a transparent one overlaid  on top. they then become one. But I get the ghosting most of the time when I go into a message from a contact to send a text.
    When I go to call logs or text logs, the numbers come up first, and then then the names pop up randomly, meaning not in order down the page, until they are all shown. lots of lag time.
    It runs slow.
    I have 5 apps on here. I should be able to have a  lot of apps on here, and play music, and have files, and...and....and.
    I can get online but doing a Google search, when the page with the choices comes up, it is blurred and I have to tap on the screen for it to become clear and readable.
    When online and scrolling, it hitches sometimes/lags/gets stuck then unstuck
    I get VZWAVS has stopped. (not sure if those are the right letters)
    The status bar that is supposed to be gray with the new update, goes back and forth between green--the old os--to gray. And I have found no continuity with when I get green or when I get gray.
    I get a black screen on occasion.
    sometimes the proximity sensor doesn't work.
    sometimes when I have my bluetooth on and have "hands free mode" on, I get the a text message read through the headset and also through the handset.
    I soft reboot often--turn it off wait a bit and

    Hi. I clicked some snaps from my iphone and post that without copying it i restored the iphone with all apps etc available from the backup taken. How do i get back the photos which were clicked earlier. Is there a way to get it back?? Please help

    Yes i had not taken back up before restoring it. However i was just going through some links on the net and there is a software available for MAC to retrieve such lost data. But the point is will the said software work on iphone as the OS is not MAC..
    Will have to give a try to this. If successful will share it with all. Anyone else has any idea about this please so share.

    That doesn't mean that you have updates.
    Not sure how that app works, - normally means you have a notification for that app - what happen when you go into the app?
    If you had update it would be a red number for the app store icon

  • I find using the iPhone / iPod size virtual keypad much easier to use with a stylus...as when an iPhone app is installed on the iPad.  Anyway to use the iPhone size keypad with all apps?

    I find using the iPhone / iPod size virtual keypad much easier to use with a stylus...as when an iPhone app is installed on the iPad.  Anyway to use the iPhone size keypad with all apps?

    I don't want the keyboard to become bigger.  Wish there was a way to always have the iPhone sized keypad available for use with any app.  When typing with fingers or stylus, the distance between keystrokes is SO much shorter and efficent on the iPhone keypad vs the "full size" iPad keyboard.
    I've heard that there will be some keyboard options when the new IOS comes out...wish this was one of them.
    Haven't looked yet, but is there a place you can recommend things such as this to Apple? 
    Thanks.

  • Mac book pro is very very slow/it hangs for even the smallest tasks/even with the lid closed it is still running if it is not completely turned off. Dose any one know what may be wrong ? and how to fix it?

    More details about the problem : My computer is a Mid 2012 Mac Book pro 2.9GHz i7 processor with 8GB RAM updated to OS X v10.8.5
    - I ran a compleet scan of my computer for any threats ( I used virus barrier express ) and there was nothing identified
    - When I oppened the Activiti Monitor there are about 20-30 processes which I do not undersatand they are run under the user "root" 2 in perticular ( Kernel_task & fseventsd ) they both take up a lot of threads and kernel_task is constantly using 1.2 GB of "real memory" which is at least 20 times any other process that is running espesially the ones that run under the user "Apple" I do not know if this is causing the problems on my mac but i tryed to forces close it and it dose not even let me click the button, the others close but reopean immideatly. I will attach a screen shot of what i have mentioned here.
    - The problems I am facing are mainly performance :- To state a few examples, my mac dose not seam to be able to handile even the smallest tasks like switching tabs on safari, typing any thing, playing a movie withought stopping inbetween, etc.. ( let me elaborate on why I said its not able to handil these tasks, it is because when I am trying to do any one of the afformentioned tasks inbetween the cursor becomes a rainbow collered spinning disk and I am unable to do anything for about 10 seckonds after which it starts to work again for some time before it happens again. )
    - Another concern of mine is that my mac seems to be on even with the lid closed if I do not shut it down compleetly, if i just close the lid after some time the computer starts warming up, and the fan starts running. the battery is drained at the same rate or slightly less rate than it would have if i was using it normally with the lid opean. ( altough this is happning the screen dose not turn on untill the lid is opean again )
    - I have only 300+ GB full out of my 750GB so i believe these are not issues caused by my mac's memory being full ( BUT THE FIRST TIME I NOTICED THIS WAS HAPPNING WAS WHEN MY MEMORY WAS ABOUT 720GB FULL WHEN THESE ISSUES FIRST AROSE I IMMEADITLY DELEATED 400+GB OF MY USELESS FILES THAT I HAD BEEN HORDING ALL OF WHICH WERE MOVIES ) that about covers it all PLEASE LET ME KNOW IF ANY ONE KNOWS WHAT TO DO.
    Ps: I apoligize if I have given too many unrelevant details, not enough usefull information and or if i was just all over the place with my explanations but I am really frustrated and was hoping not to miss anyting. Please let me know if any information at all is required and ill do my best to provide it.

    Delete background Apps from memory and then Reset.
    To Delete background Apps, double click Home button, in the bar at bottom, hold down on an App Icon until the minus sign appears, tap all the minus signs, until all background Apps are cleared from memory. Then Reset, hold both Home and Power buttons until the iPhone begins to restart itself, ignor the 'slide to power off' let the iPhone restart itself. Usually takes about 10 seconds of holding both buttons.

    If you can log into the computer, go to the Mac App Store and purchase Mavericks under your AppleID.   Even though its free, they still consider it a purchase.
    If you are not able to log into your Mac you can try on a different Mac.  Once you purchase it, you can stop the download if you want.
    Once you do that then you should be able to reinstall via the Recovery HD

    Hey there Mark,
    If this is indeed the first time that you have used your Apple ID in the iTunes or App store you do need to have a payment method the first time you set it up:
    Create an iTunes Store, App Store, or iBooks Store account without a credit card or other payment method
    If you've already created your Apple ID, you'll need to add a payment method when you first use it to sign in to the iTunes Store, App Store, or iBooks Store. But you can optionally remove the payment methodafter you sign in to the store. You won't be asked for a payment method again until you make your first purchase.
    Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.
    Regards,
    Sterling
